Martin Luther King Celebration Book Reading at Johnson House Historic Site

Join author Antje Ulrike Mattheus for a special reading of her new book to discover the story of Creshiem Farm.  An American history of conquest, privilege and struggles for freedom and equality, the book cites research by Ena Veronica Linder Swain, a former board member, author, and Germantown activist.  Cresheim Farm, a work of political archaeology, shows how one mostly unknown but strategically placed piece of land – home to an extraordinary array of people, including anti-slavery and racial justice activists – can tell, affect, and lend insight into the history of a nation.
